| Legal Task Forces |
| In concert with a number of Australia’s
leading Queen's and Senior Counsel and Barristers, MBS has experience
in Pacific matters involving commercial and highly delicate issues, major
litigation and/or advice, where local practitioners or government legal
officers may not be in a position to act for a number of reasons. |

|
 |
| MBS can promptly
assemble a legal task force and attend in any Pacific country, to prepare
and appear in court cases and negotiations, as well as provide assistance
and advice on legislation and projects for corporate, private clients,
Government Ministries or Departments, other Pacific countries and matters
relating to Europe, Africa and the Americas. |

New Caledonia and French Polynesia
|
| Since 1985, MBS, as a rare French-speaking firm,
has maintained a privileged rapport with these French Pacific territories
or pays d'outre-mer, as they are now known. Documents can be translated
to and from French for Australian and international purposes through
its accredited (Australian National Accreditation Authority for Translators
and Interpreters and French diplomatic and consular missions in Australia)
associated agency
Traductions Françaises. |

|
 |
In New Caledonia, MBS established
an associate legal office in 1992, both handling numerous files, company
set ups, litigation, projects and provided local, private international
and comparative law advice and documentation (to and from Australia
and New Caledonia), which also assists with Wallis and Futuna. A network
of other professionals and consultants is at the disposal of clients.
The firm has legal and chartered accountant agents in French Polynesia
to provide specific assistance. |
